Lyrics

0:01Redemption Song
0:17Old pirates yes they rob I;
0:22Sold I to the merchant ships
0:27Minutes after they took I
0:31From the bottomless pit
0:34But my hand was made strong
0:39By the 'and of the Almighty
0:43We forward in this generation
0:48Triumphantly
0:52Won't you help to sing
0:57This songs of freedom
1:00'Cause all I ever have:
1:05Redemption songs;
1:09Redemption songs
1:14Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;
1:18None but ourselves can free our minds
1:22Have no fear for atomic energy
1:26'Cause none of them can stop the time
1:30How long shall they kill our prophets
1:34While we stand aside and look Ooh
1:39Some say it's just a part of it:
1:43We've got to fullfil the book
